Summary
Sparta is dying.
Gods once ruled the land, until King Menelaus cast them out and crowned himself in their place. Now drought scours the earth, and a mysterious affliction steals the breath from the living. Prayers go unanswered. Defiance is rewarded with blood.
When the king resurrects the ancient trials meant to choose his queen, Helena becomes her dying village’s only hope. Marked by a terrible beauty, she steps forward not for glory - but for survival.
